    Been said loads of times,he does get judged more harshly than a player signed by the club imo.If he was playing abroad and we were linked to him,everyone would be going on youtube and raving about him.

    Useful player - Technically good but lacks game awareness and isn't the quickest. I'm not his biggest fan but he's been excellent the past two games, mind you the standard of opposition might make him look better than he is :rofl:

    And very well deserved, must say i though a good few of our players could've won the MOTM, Broony, Sinclair Jozo Boyata, in fact i could probably go thru the whole team lol.

    He's directness and ability to carry the ball at speed through the middle, is such an asset..

    Rogic is having to bide his time after his injury and it was Armstrong that made way for him today, wee man is playing so well.

    In what ways does he lack 'game awareness'?

    What? Lacks awareness and quickness, have you watched McGregor?

    I agree that he does get it tight at times but I don't believe it is because he isn't some foreigner who looked class on Youtube, I don't buy into that stuff. It's the same as the good old 'If he had a fancy sounding foreign name he'd get a lot more credit' argument.

    He's in very good form and deserves every plaudit coming his way at the moment, but, any criticism in the past I've seen has usually been warranted in regards to the faults in his game and people at numerous times not believing he could really step up and be a huge player for us.

    I'm still to be convinced that he is a regular starter, a good player to have around as I've always said but time will tell if he really cements himself in there. I won't complain if he does.
